Edgar May Health & Recreation Center plans Easter egg hunt, indoor triathlon
SPRINGFIELD — The Edgar May Health & Recreation Center has planned two exciting events which will take place in April — the Underwater Easter Egg Hunt and an indoor triathlon.
Underwater Easter Egg Hunt
The event will be held Sunday, April 2 from 4 to 6 p.m.
Young children will have the opportunity to hunt for eggs in, on and underwater. More than 1,200 Easter eggs will be hidden throughout the EdgarMay pools, providing children the chance to splash and search for eggs.
This year, there will be two different sessions to accommodate more swimmers. Session one will take place at 4 p.m. and is open to swimmers 2-4 years old and is limited to 20 children. Session two will be held at 4:30 p.m. and will be open to children ages 4-12. All participants will receive a goodie bag full of fun prizes.
Some eggs will contain special prizes such as free swimming lessons or a free birthday party at the EdgarMay.
Pre-registration is required for this event and space is limited. Sign up online at myrecenter.org or by calling 802-885-2568.
Indoor Triathlon
The Edgar May Health and Recreation Center will be hosting its fourth indoor triathlon Saturday, April 29 from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This event is perfect for those interested in trying their first triathlon due its safe and controlled environment, but is also a unique event for a seasoned triathlete.
Participants will swim for 15-minutes in the EdgarMay lap pool, ride a spinning bike for 25-minutes and then run on a treadmill for 20-minutes.
There will also be a mini-tri, which is a 7-minute swim, 15-minute bike, and a 10-minute run.
The event is open to anyone ages 10 and up and meets the 5-foot height requirement for the bikes. The mini-tri is perfect for those who might be a little intimidated by a 15-minute swim.
Sign up at myrecenter.org or by calling 802-885-2568.
